Near normal: Your count is at the low end of normal, but it may be normal for you. You may need to do the test again in a few weeks/months to see if there are any changes. Should you experience an infection, see your doctor immediately. See this site for more info. http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/complete-blood-count/my00476/dsection=results.

Probably normal.: If you feel fine this is probably normal. A single lab value is not very helpful. Need to know what labs have looked like in past and under what circumstances this one was drawn. Were you sick or displaying symptoms? If so you most certainly weren't normal and your labs might be expected to be outside normal. Ask the doc who drew your labs for more specific advice.
